Default One Motorcycle That I'll Never Ride

FreshBite - A Fresh Bite at the Web

It may look like the most dangerous motorbike in the world but this new invention is actually the latest form of green transport.

That concept bike has been around for a while. Not in that shape, but they keep playing with the idea. With "Ginger" (read, one wheeled Segways) it's now possible.

Finally, a bike for Airjockie ! (Who rides a unicycle, from what I hear, expertly)

Yeahremember seeing something on the discovery channel about a guy who built them, you rode inside the wheel, it was pretty cool he had one with a Harley motor and another one with a small single. He wrecked one and died I guess.

They are for sale on Ebay. About 1000 bux gets you into a motorized wheel.

I was thinking of getting one, because one was pictured on the back of an xB and it was AWESOME.

I've wanted to build one since I saw the anime with them racing them around tokyo 10+ years ago.

The design has been around since the 30s.... and I still want to do it.
